Best Answer

I have known a few people with this ailment. It can take 20 years in some people or less in others. It depends on the liver damage one has sustained (how much of an alco they are and for how long they have been boozin it up) Also depends on when the person finds it out as to what stage it is at. You cant really say as it also depends on what the person may do to extend their life once they know about the condition. Do they drop the boozen or keep living like there is no tomorrow... To many variables to answer as a fact.

It would depend on how much damage was done, and if it was possible to get a donor.

How long do you have to live with hepititus c?

Life expectancy varies, depending on whether the patient develops scarring of the liver (20% of cases), as 25% of such cases lead to liver cancer and liver failure. Diet, lifestyle, and quality of treatment can all affect the life span of a patient, as well as the availibility of liver transplants in the case of failure. As such, life expectancy is unpredictable and can range from months to decades.
